Really struggling. This is what I texted my partner this morning:

It's amazing to me how quickly I can go from feeling like I am in line to run this agency to feeling like I need to leave immediately; it changes in the span of just a few hours.

Any strong performing seniors looking for a pay increase and potential fast track to manager? Reach out to me. Expanding the team and would love to bring in some new talent.

I’m currently in the process of being converted from contractor to permanent. In my initial conversations I was under the impression that I was in a different pay grade and asked for a salary 25k higher than the max allotted for my position. I feel like it gave the impression that I don’t know what I’m doing. Any suggestion how I can recover from this?

Anybody work in ethics and compliance? If so, what’s your current role and previous experience? I’m curious what my career path could look like in this area. I previously was in public accounting

Having gone through a very underfunded public school system I felt inadequate and I was able to coast by through college. Though I feel like Im capable now I still feel inadequate sometimes. Thoughts?

I’m trying to hire two roles and am really struggling with candidates asking for way more than I’d be prepared to pay for their experience and skill set, yet feel held over a barrel due to the climate. Anyone else having the same issues?

Recommendations for lightweight low maintenance versatile blazer?

I’m currently Working in Healthcare IT as a Project Manager. Thinking of transitioning into healthcare consulting. What are your tips on this with regards to companies, options and challenges

Since disconnecting with past stories my reality has drastically bent. My stories programmed my reality, attracting what I told myself I was/wasn't.

It makes me intensely uncomfortable when I hear people who should know better misusing the word “myself.” As in “please cc Kate and myself on your email.”

My CEO was just ousted and I think he left a stash of weed in his old office

I’m struggling. I left an agency I liked last year due to growth limitations and since then I’ve worked at 2 different agencies and can’t seem to find my footing. The first one seemed like a good fit at first but then it turned out to not be the best place for me so I left. At my current agency I feel super undervalued. I’m always raising my hand and offering to help where I can and no matter what I do, I don’t feel utilized or valued or part of the team.It’s really taken a toll on my confidence

Someone used my mug while I worked from home yesterday and now the top is missing. I feel like this is a metaphor for my agency en masse.

I’m tired of the arrogance and male techno-superiority. Where are the humans with feelings, vulnerability, joy in all of this?

I’m white.. and a man. Shhh, don’t tell anyone.

I just applied to DDB and I forgot to include a cover letter. But I did include my portfolio, resume, and references.

I make poor decisions

If everything is “asap”, nothing is “asap”

First day back after a 10-day beach stint. Putting on pants was hard enough.

The new swatch ads make no sense to me. Skin Irony? Wtf?

I didn’t make dalgona coffee when it was a trend earlier in quarantine and I’m not sure if I missed out on anything...

I am stupidly rejecting recruiters with legit offers because I am waiting for The One. The offer to end all offers. But they are taking entirely too long to notify me. They keep telling me to hold on.

Who has made the leap from working/living in the US to abroad? Any words of advice?

I get so frustrated and annoyed when people make stupid common sense mistakes and I think it’s starting to affect my relationships. Don’t really know what to do.

I left my job without having anything else lined up otherwise I would have had a mental breakdown. I’m not even in that great of a financial place, but it was my job or my sanity. I know at least three other people who, in the past few months, have left with nothing lined up. I feel like it’s something we need to be talking more about. This isn’t normal for people to be doing this right?

After nearly a year WFH and being with my family 24/7, I’m not entirely sure we actually like each other. Or maybe they don’t like me being at home. Or they don’t like me. Probably the latter 😞

My partner refuses to flatulate during waking hours around me. I feel this lack of intimacy is cause for alarm. I calmly mentioned my concerns and she doesn't feel comfortable speaking about the subject. Any suggestions?

Parents - do any of you truly regret having kids?
